And another NWOBHM Incubus, but that's getting really obscure.

According to Mike Einziger, Incubus was just some random word they picked out of the dictionary, they didn't choose that name for any other reason than that it sounded cool.

Which is misleading seeing as Incubus sound anything but cool.

A lot of bands use the random word out of a dictionary method such as r.e.m

Oh STFU already. Stop dissing 99% of all the f*cking music I like or I'm going to revert back to my obsessive anti-Indie ranting like I used to.

Saying they're not cool could imply they sound hot. Which is a compliment.

I hate the cliche metal and hardcore band names. Except Strapping Young Lad I like that.

But bands like Lamb Of God (even though I somewhat enjoy their music), and 3 inches of blood and **** like that that just annoys me

possibly. unless you really are a satanic skinhead. in that case, your handle is commendable but your being is detestable.

Actually, yes I am one. If that means you don't like me, then, oh well I guess...

I actually really loved the name of Incubus. It made me want to listen. So I did...and a few minutes later I desisted.
